Dear superusers, please delete this book ~ http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15... This one goes beyond my "powers". :)Thanks!!!!
Please mergehttp://www.goodreads.com/book/show/57...
to
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...
Thanks.
Dear Superlibrarians, please delete this edition: http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16... The lone user who added it must have searched for 9783570400210, which is already in the database. There seems to be no other German edition on the market.
These two editions of http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/12... appear to be duplicates with no ISBNS that probably were manual adds of the popular edition. I separated them from the other editions to look at them, but didn't want to delete them as they do have lots of reviews. This was published this year. Do you normally try to clean up new books by doing these types of deletions?http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...

#523 doneBoth the editions you linked were indeed duplicates. What happens with those is that we combine them with the specific edition they are duplicating. If we can't tell what the specific edition was, we leave them combined with the most popular edition.
Then, we delete. This type of delete is called a "merge", meaning the reviews get transferred over to the correct edition with the ISBN.
And, yes, we do this a lot. ;)
#525 done#526 was a case of someone removing valid ISBNs; restored, no deletion necessary
#527 was a case of an author trying to remove/update an "old" edition; reverted her edits, no deletion necessary
#528 done
Can someone please delete the book I mentioned in #514? Someone must have created that book thinking there was going to be a book 4 in the series but the author updated the description stating it does not exist.Cheers!
Can a super get this one?http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13...
I've isolated the same Persian edition and combined it with this one, will recombine with the others after this one is deleted/merged.
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/15...a book that was supposed to be published, and it won't be published anymore.
hope it will be removed.
533 done, 534 may be an alternate cover edition that had it's cover deleted so I'm leaving it for now, 535, 536 done.
Please delete my book! I have changed to a pen name now and have removed the novel from online sites. The book has been broken it into parts and has a new title. The novel A Heart Worth Saving no longer exists - please delete.

Re 514/532: Seems to be a placeholder for the author's upcoming standalone, which she was formerly referring to as "Fall Together" (as her 'Zon bio states), but is now considered untitled (as she states on her blog).Re 534/538: A case of an author removing an original cover. Restored the image, no deletion necessary.
Re 537: I'm hesitant to delete it as it has a review already. Just to clarify, you never plan to publish it?
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/16...I have combined with the other editions but it has 7 reviews and no information indicating its edition.
Nope, you were right...deleted. ::refilling coffee:: :)
